Failing to get the gist of what's being said: background noise impairs higher-order cognitive processing.

Frontiers in psychology

Marsh JE, Ljung R, Nöstl A, Threadgold E, Campbell TA.
PMID: 26052289
Front Psychol. 2015 May 21;6:548. doi: 10.3389/fpsyg.2015.00548. eCollection 2015.

A dynamic interplay is known to exist between auditory processing and human cognition. For example, prior investigations of speech-in-noise have revealed there is more to learning than just listening: Even if all words within a spoken list are correctly...

Low HDL levels in sepsis versus trauma patients in intensive care unit.

Annals of intensive care

Tanaka S, Labreuche J, Drumez E, Harrois A, Hamada S, Vigué B, Couret D, Duranteau J, Meilhac O.
PMID: 28589535
Ann Intensive Care. 2017 Dec;7(1):60. doi: 10.1186/s13613-017-0284-3. Epub 2017 Jun 06.

BACKGROUND: The protective cardiovascular effect of high-density lipoproteins (HDLs) is considered to chiefly rely on reverse cholesterol transport from peripheral tissues back to the liver. However, HDL particles display pleiotropic properties, including anti-inflammatory, anti-apoptotic or antioxidant functions. Some studies...

Two-channel Kondo effect and renormalization flow with macroscopic quantum charge states.

Nature

Iftikhar Z, Jezouin S, Anthore A, Gennser U, Parmentier FD, Cavanna A, Pierre F.
PMID: 26450056
Nature. 2015 Oct 08;526(7572):233-6. doi: 10.1038/nature15384.

Many-body correlations and macroscopic quantum behaviours are fascinating condensed matter problems. A powerful test-bed for the many-body concepts and methods is the Kondo effect, which entails the coupling of a quantum impurity to a continuum of states. It is...

Evaluation of Calligonum azel Maire, a North African desert plant, for its nutritional potential as a sustainable food and feed.

Food research international (Ottawa, Ont.)

Bannour M, Lachenmeier DW, Straub I, Kohl-Himmelseher M, Khadhri A, Aschi-Smiti S, Kuballa T, Belgacem H.
PMID: 28460951
Food Res Int. 2016 Nov;89:558-564. doi: 10.1016/j.foodres.2016.09.004. Epub 2016 Sep 04.

This study is the first to evaluate the potential of Calligonum azel Maire as a food ingredient. The plant materials flowers, leaves, stems and roots were analyzed by wet-chemical and instrumental methods for major and minor composition. The highest...

Speech intelligibility and recall of first and second language words heard at different signal-to-noise ratios.

Frontiers in psychology

Hygge S, Kjellberg A, Nöstl A.
PMID: 26441765
Front Psychol. 2015 Sep 14;6:1390. doi: 10.3389/fpsyg.2015.01390. eCollection 2015.

Free recall of spoken words in Swedish (native tongue) and English were assessed in two signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) conditions (+3 and +12 dB), with and without half of the heard words being repeated back orally directly after presentation [shadowing,...

Active SAmpling Protocol (ASAP) to Optimize Individual Neurocognitive Hypothesis Testing: A BCI-Inspired Dynamic Experimental Design.

Frontiers in human neuroscience

Sanchez G, Lecaignard F, Otman A, Maby E, Mattout J.
PMID: 27458364
Front Hum Neurosci. 2016 Jul 07;10:347. doi: 10.3389/fnhum.2016.00347. eCollection 2016.

The relatively young field of Brain-Computer Interfaces has promoted the use of electrophysiology and neuroimaging in real-time. In the meantime, cognitive neuroscience studies, which make extensive use of functional exploration techniques, have evolved toward model-based experiments and fine hypothesis...

Lipophilic Constituents of Rumex vesicarius L. and Rumex dentatus L.

Antioxidants (Basel, Switzerland)

Elfotoh MA, Shams KA, Anthony KP, Shahat AA, Ibrahim MT, Abdelhady NM, Azim NS, Hammouda FM, El-Missiry MM, Saleh MA.
PMID: 26784344
Antioxidants (Basel). 2013 Sep 16;2(3):167-80. doi: 10.3390/antiox2030167.

Rumex dentatus L. and Rumex vesicarius L., of the family Polygonaceae, are edible herbs growing wild in Egypt. Their lipoid constituents were examined by both liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (LC/MS) and by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS). Their essential oil compositions...

Effects of anethole in nociception experimental models.

Evidence-based complementary and alternative medicine : eCAM

Ritter AM, Ames FQ, Otani F, de Oliveira RM, Cuman RK, Bersani-Amado CA.
PMID: 25506382
Evid Based Complement Alternat Med. 2014;2014:345829. doi: 10.1155/2014/345829. Epub 2014 Nov 25.

This study investigated the antinociceptive activity of anethole (anethole 1-methoxy-4-benzene (1-propenyl)), major compound of the essential oil of star anise (Illicium verum), in different experimental models of nociception. The animals were pretreated with anethole (62.5, 125, 250, and 500...

A review on the inhibitory potential of Nigella sativa against pathogenic and toxigenic fungi.

Avicenna journal of phytomedicine

Shokri H.
PMID: 27247919
Avicenna J Phytomed. 2016 Jan-Feb;6(1):21-33.

Nigella sativa (N. sativa) grows in various parts of the world, particularly in Iran. It has been traditionally used as a folk remedy to treat a number of diseases. The seeds of this plant contain moisture, proteins, carbohydrates, crude...

Structural, electrochemical and photophysical properties of an exocyclic di-ruthenium complex and its application as a photosensitizer.

Dalton transactions (Cambridge, England : 2003)

Salpage SR, Paul A, Som B, Banerjee T, Hanson K, Smith MD, Vannucci AK, Shimizu LS.
PMID: 27216541
Dalton Trans. 2016 Jun 21;45(23):9601-7. doi: 10.1039/c6dt01377e. Epub 2016 May 24.

The reaction of cis-bis(2,2'-bipyridine)dichlororuthenium(ii) hydrate with a conformationally mobile bipyridyl macrocycle afforded [(bpy)2Ru(μ-L)Ru(bpy)2]Cl4·6H2O, a bridged di-Ru complex. Single crystal X-ray diffraction showed the macrocyclic ligand adopting a bowl-like structure with the exo-coordinated Ru(ii) centers separated by 7.29 Å. Photophysical...

Density of states in a superconductor carrying a supercurrent.

Physical review letters

Anthore A, Pothier H, Esteve D.

We have measured the tunneling density of states (DOS) in a superconductor carrying a supercurrent or exposed to an external magnetic field. The pair correlations are weakened by the supercurrent, leading to a modification of the DOS and to...
